Book-loving executive producer and partner of Toaster Pictures shares insider Prague tips
When it comes to culture and style, Toaster Pictures’ Tomáš Otradovec is the epitome of seriously on point taste. Let’s just say you’re unlikely to catch him hunched over a games console – rather he’d be leafing through a book, savouring complex classical music or enjoying one of the exquisite eateries of his home town, Prague. Something else to know about Tomáš – he lists his ‘charming voice’ as his essential analogue work tool and you’d be hard pushed to find a more interesting conversationalist.
